Pimicikamak Cree Nation files an injunction against Manitoba's moose-hunting license reduction, arguing treaty rights.

Manitoba's Pimicikamak Cree Nation files a court injunction against the province's moose-hunting licenses, arguing their treaty rights allow them to hunt for food. The Manitoba government has reduced fall moose-hunting licenses in four northern regions by 75%, but Pimicikamak Cree Nation says the reduction is insufficient. The Manitoba Wildlife Federation, representing licensed hunters, calls for a judicial review, stating there's no firm data supporting the dire moose population situation claim.
